For a E3JM with the timer function, the indicator will be lit when
incident light is received while the mode is switched to Light-ON,
and the indicator will be lit when light is interrupted while the mode
is switched to Dark-ON.
Move the Emitter and Receiver horizontally and vertically, and
locate them to the center of the range in which the Receiver indicator is lit.

The indicator of the Retro-reflective Model with the timer function

is lit in the same way as for the Through-beam Model.
As with the Through-beam Model, adjust the Reflector and Sensor. Since the directional angle of the E3JM Retro-reflective
Model is 1 to 5 degrees, pay careful attention when adjusting the
Sensor.

Diffuse-reflective Models
The indicator of the Diffuse-reflective Model with the timer function is lit in the same way as for the Through-beam Model.

1. If a sensing object is present as shown above, turn the sensitivity adjuster clockwise to increase the sensitivity. Point (A) is
where the indicator is lit.
2. Remove the sensing object and turn the adjuster clockwise.
Point (B) is where the indicator is lit by background objects.
3. Turn the adjuster counterclockwise to decrease the sensitivity,
starting from the point (B). Point (C) is where the indicator is
lit.
4. The center point between the point (A) and point (C) is the
optimum position. If the indicator is not lit by the background
object at the maximum sensitivity, set to the center point
between the point (A) and the maximum sensitivity.
Note: The sensitivity adjuster may be damaged if an excessive force is
applied.

Connecting and Wiring

Terminal Protection Cover (Accessory)

Recommended outer diameter of cables is from 6 to 8 dia.

Be sure to firmly tighten the cover in order to maintain waterproof
and dustproof properties.

The terminal protection cover is designed to improve safety by

maintaining the sensitivity properties of the product and by preventing any contact with charged sections while it is being operated with the mode set to the timer mode. Mount the product as
shown in the following diagram (mount the Through-beam Model
on the Receiver side).

Cable End Treatment

Adjust the four wires to the same length when the Ta output is to
be used only. If both the Ta and Tb outputs are to be used, treat
them as shown in the following diagram.

Output Relay Contact

If a load, such as contactor or valve is used that may produce arc
when it is turned OFF, the NC (or NO) side may turn ON before
the NO (or NC) side is turned OFF. When using both the NC and
NO outputs, use an arc killer.

Connecting and Wiring DC SSR Output Models

When using the DC SSR output model, the total of the load current for the Light-ON output (NO) and that for the Dark-ON (NC)
should be 100 mA max. If the total exceeds 100 mA, the load
short-circuit protection function will be activated (this function will
be reset when the power of the Photoelectric Sensor is turned
OFF ).

(After crimping)

Note: Use terminals with insulation tube (recommended crimp terminal: 1.25
